Mostly delightful

July

Pros: Pace

Cons: Dinner, bartenders, did not feature local wines.

Recommended: Yes

Great pace and enjoyable itinerary. Dinner variety appeared fine but preparation was not great. Cool to warm, not hot, food served. When advising head waiter that chicken was dry, he stated “but you ordered chicken breast, so it will always be dry.” Bartenders couldn’t make a dry martini and baffled by certain orders. Addition there was a noticeable lack of Rhine Valley wines offered (a significant reason for choosing this itinerary).

Netherlands and Germany on the Rhine

September

Pros: Enjoyed the biking and yoga, Kroller Muller Museum, Eberbach Vineyards, plus other excursions.

Cons: Not able to complete original itinerary due to low water levels.

Recommended: Yes

Even though we were unable to cruise to our last port arrangements were made for excursions and other activities plus bus tour of Rhine gorge. Cabin was lovely and staff very helpful and friendly.
